In the early 1990's, everybody knew of the 16-bit battle between Sega and Nintendo; yet within their scuffle, there was another company with their own 16-bit video game system that was overlooked in all the chaos. Hudson Soft was a very good software company, and although they didn't have too many remarkable characters they could call their own, they decided to cash in on the arcade-conversion craze by releasing a machine that could play video games like the ones all the major arcade making companies made about 20 years ago. It was a big gamble, and although they had a number of good games available for their individual system, the Turbographx 16 just never got the name recognition that the Genesis or the Super NES did, so it was doomed to finish in last place. Thankfully, Hudson Soft's endeavor wasn't in vain, and it decided that software game making was its stronger forte, so it went back to making game's for other video game systems. Now, some 19 to 18 years after Hudson Soft's experiment was ended, I can now use the Wii Virtual Console, and see some of the video game's that the youth of yesterday overlooked, and wonder, how things might have been different if the games for the Turbographx 16 had sold more. :idea: "Bonk's Revenge" took the winning formula of a head-strong, head-butting caveman boy with an appetite for an adventure, and kicked the challenge up a notch from his first adventure. There are plenty of secrets and bonus challenges to rack up points, extra-lives, and happy-face symbols (and the more you get before you defeat one of the six end of level bosses,) the better of a in-between rewards you'll get between the levels. :D Bonk is by far the coolest caveman hero that could be played during the 16-bit video game era, and his challenging enemy-bashing bonanza holds up very-well, even among the video-game offerings of today! :!: It's plenty of fun, and well-worth the price of only 600 Wii points! :) I enjoyed it, and I highly recommend it to people looking for an old-school video game challenge! 8) Enough said! ;)
